It will he noticed that this section
leaves the whole matter entirely in
the hands Of the farmers, and they
can avail themselves of its provisions
and not continue to be subject to the

an action before any justice of the

unenclosed lands prior notice is neces

Now, what is notice? The Law
surely does not suppose or intent
that farmer shall spend his time a

ing off trespassers. In the absence o

the act, 1t may be assumed that sucl
notice as is specified in enactment

may then be assumed that such post

CORRESPONDENCE.
Farmers vs., Hunters.

For a number OF years there has
been growing feeling among the
farmers OF this visin ty that their
rights Of property were being grossly
abused 10y the average hunter, and
this feeling first found expression in
an able article from the pen Of "L. ].
s." in the Morris TRIBUNE a year ago.
During the same season notices We're
published by the Boards of Super
visors OF one or two towns, warning
hunters against violations of the law.
II would seem that Expectations have
rather increased, as this year NE find
In current editions OF eur papers no.
ticss from halfa dozen or more towns,
which, though they may. not all be
strictly In accordance with the letter
Of the law, are certainly of great sig
nificance In showing how thoroughly
the spirit Of the farming community
is aroused in the attempt at self pro-
lection. Where there is so much
smoke there must be some fire; and
we find the embers famed by such
Outrages as shooting OF cattle, the
trampling down OF grainsfields, the
overthrowing OF shocks for the aver
age hunter will never turn out for
one), the injury to stacks (for the
average hunter, not content with let
ting his horses feed on the farmers
grain, will allow them to pull out and
trample- under foot, ten times what
they eat), the driving through and
over potato fields and corn fields and
even gardens, the reckless shooting
around and even at buildings; all
Of which the writer has seen and suf-
fered. Add to this the abuse which
the poor farmer often receives upon
demonstrating with the trespassers,
and 1t is no wonder that he concludes
that the average hunter believes the
farmer has no rights which the aver
age hunter is found to respect.
While the last legislature was en-
acting laws for the protection Of the
farmers property in grain, it also
enacted law for the protection Of the
farmers property in real estate, from
trespass, aud for the protection of the
peoples property in game. In addi-
ton to the right which every man has
of prosecuting trespasser on his
property, our statute specified the
penalty for him who enters upon en-
closed fields or standing grain against
the owners desire. An act known as
the game law, enacted by the last Leg
islature, after providing for the time
wherein and the means by which
game should be pursued or killed,
specifies in Section as follows:
Sec. 5. No person shall at any
time enter into any growing or stand
ing grain or any enclosed land not
his own, with sporting implements
about his person; nor permit his dog
or dogs to enter into any growing or
standing grain or into such enclosed
land, without permission of the own
er or occupant thereof; and no person
shall at any time hunt or shoot upon
any lands of another which are un-
cultivated or unenclosed after being
notified not to hunt or shoot thereon !;
and any person who shallenter into
such growing or standing grain, or
into such enclosed land Of another

HOFFMAN Hanged.

NEBRASKA CITY, Neb., July 22.-Hoffman
slept well last night retiring at eleven and
awakening at six this morning. He ate a
good breakfast and heard the death war
rant without tremor His brothers took
their farewell half an hour before the exc
cution. 1t was heartrending and Hoffman
broke down at the last, but raj
lied as soon as they left. At
10 30 the procession for the scaffold left
the cell, with the ministers holding Hoff-
man by each arm. AS he went on to the
scaffold his gait was unsteady, and when
asked what he had to say he broke down
and said nothing. He took his place on the
trap trembled like a leaf while be ing tied
and the cap was adjusted. At 1924 the
trap was sprung and the body fell After
several commissions all was over. The body
was cut down in fifteen minutes.
The crime for which Hoffman was hanged
was the wrecking of train by misp placing
a rail on the Missouri Pacific about one and
a half miles of Dunbar, Neb., January ii
last, by which the engineer, James De-
witt, was killed and the conductor terribly
injured.

German Soldier Who Rendered Great
Service to the Revolutionary Army.
Frederick William Augustus Steu-
ben, Baron, eminent in the service to
the American cause, at time when it
needed help from such as he, died near
Utica, N. Y, at the age of sixty-four
years. Deep affection from every true
American is his due, for the order and
skill in which he brought the American
forces in their great exigency. Like
many other foreigners he left home
and wealth for the privilege Of fight
ing for the American cause. He was
born at Madgeburg, Prussia, NOvem-
Der Is, 1870, and received good edu.'
cation. He entered the military SER
vice and soon rose 10 a position near
the King, the Frederick William. He
ranked high in the military and court
circles of Europe, because Of the repu-
tation he had made in the seven years
war. He was not obliged to leave his
country but came voluntarily, and
upon arrival offered his services TO
Congress. He was placed with the
army at Valley Forge and at once in
troduced the Prussian drill by adapting
It to the American troops. In the
brilliant campaign which followed his
influence was felt. He wrote a book
on military science, in French. at the
solicitation of Washington and Con-
gress He could not use the English
language. 1t was translated and was
the only book Of the kind accessible to
the American soldiers during the revo-
luton. He ultimately became Ma
ior-General and his services can never
be over-estimated. He was fervent
Christian, but was possessed of 81 quick
temper, which would manifest itself
when he undertook TO deal with raw
troops. He, however, gained the good
viii Of the soldier, and would often re-
ward the apt scholar out Of his own
pocket His life was full of noble and
generous acts, and his fortune dwin-
died away through kindness Of heart.
In 1890 he was voted by Congress an
annuity Of $500 for life. and land
from several States. including $1,000
acres from New York. He retired to
log house on the latter and freely
settled some Of his old army acquaint-
ances upon the land. which he pre-
sented 70 them. His last years were
spent in comparative quiet Toledo
Blade.

The glowing height Of golden day,

The birds shall thrill the rosy bough
With ecstasy of spring-tide song;
And in the meadows, then as now,
The grass shall crowd and throng.
There shall be flowers and flowers Ito WASTE
Along the paths where victors tread,
Or where the feasters singing haste;
And wreaths to deck the dead.
And not the less, cool streams shall run
Through secret haunts of woodland gloom;
And 1 shall smile as smiles the sun
On cradle and on tomb.
